A convicted thug who beat up the driver of a car in a fit of road rage while on release from prison will spend the next five years behind bars.

Charandeep Banger, 34, was found guilty at Willesden Magistrates' Court on Wednesday (December 13) of attacking a man in Yeading Gardens, Hayes.

The Hayes resident had previously been convicted of a frenzied attack in 2010, where he smashed bottles on the ground and used them to attack and injure six men who had thrown his friend out of a club in Field End Road, Ruislip .

Banger, of Geldwood Road, was out of prison on standard release at the time of the attack, after serving half of his 10-year prison sentence for two charges of grievous bodily harm, as well as common assault and afrray.

The road rage assault took place at around 4pm on Friday November 10 while the victim was driving down a narrow road on his way to pick his daughter up from school, the court heard.
